292 The Award Ceremony! Part-3.

Royal Garden, 9:30 a.m.

The Elven King went onto the stage with a microphone in his hand.

"Everyone, welcome to this humble banquet that I have arranged for you all. Today, as the head of the world alliance, I will represent the world alliance as a whole and will reward the candidates one by one..."

"Every candidate who has made it to this competition has talent in their own league, so we won't let you go home empty-handed. You all worked hard, so we will not let you guys down...."

Everyone sat down on their respective chairs and enjoyed drinks and snacks, while Ryul worked hard to hand out rewards to the candidates one by one.

The candidates were called according to the elimination order.

From the candidate who got eliminated first to the one who survived the tournament till the last, this is the order in which the candidates will be called to the stage.

Although it felt quite embarrassing that everyone was able to see who was eliminated first, when the reward given by the Elven King turned out to be good, everything turned out to be worth it.

All candidates got something that could help in making some meaningful improvements.

Don't underestimate the analytical capabilities of an SS-ranker; they were keeping a close eye on every single candidate, no matter whether the candidate was weak or strong.

They observed their fight and analyzed which reward would be more beneficial for them.

That's the horror of SS-rankers detection capabilities; it's as if they can see right through your soul and thought process.

Once their eyes are set on you, they will easily be able to analyze any shortcomings that you might have.

This is possible because they can literally see the 'Flow of Mana' and they can see the mana coursing inside your body, and they can analyze if you have any weaknesses in how you utilize your mana.

Although this ability to observe others' 'Flow of Mana' doesn't work on fellow SS-rankers, it's still usable against those in the lower ranks.

Thus, they rewarded the students according to their needs and the efforts they showed in this tournament.

Candidates were called to the stage one by one by calling their names, and then they were given their rewards and got a chance to have a photo clicked while getting rewarded by the Elf King himself. Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

They can print this photo later and use it to brag in front of their friends.

Some candidates acquired movement arts, as their slow movements were hindering their performance in the tournament; others acquired powerful combat arts and other similar skills.

Some even got rewarded with peak S-rank weapons! This clearly shows that the world alliance really isn't lacking when it comes to resources.

Although the number of candidates was quite high, Ryul is an SS ranker, and he won't tire of something like this even if you make him do it for years consecutively.

SS rankers have 'World Authorities'; they can literally replenish their mana in a matter of milliseconds.

Which means they theoretically have 'infinite mana' and, with their amazing natural regeneration capabilities, they won't tire out unless they run out of mana.

This simply means that unless you kill them with an extremely powerful attack, they can regenerate passively and won't die at all.

(They are like literal demi-gods walking on the face of earth; do you really think they are weak?)

...

Time passed, and two hours flew by eventually.

Ryul's working speed was quite fast, but it still took him some time, as he had to do everything quite slowly so as to show proper appreciation to every candidate.

Next, Ryul glanced at Arner, who was sitting in the back.

[Summoner's Blessing]

"This skill will let you use mana to heal your summoned beast, and it will also help you use the skills of your own summoned beast. There are also many other hidden mysteries in it that are waiting for you to uncover them..."

The skill 'Summoner's Blessing' was first created by an SS-rank summoner during the thousand-year demon extinction war, but after that, not a single summoner was able to master this skill.

They simply lacked the talent to comprehend the true potential of this skill, but Ryul and others have full confidence that Liam can achieve what others couldn't, as his talent is worthy of praise.

Liam himself didn't expect that he would be able to receive this secret skill so easily. Thus, when he went back to his seat, he was smiling from ear to ear in excitement.

After Liam, it was Vanya's turn, and she got herself an extremely strong movement art as she was unable to keep up with Link's attacks during their battle.

With this movement art, she will be able to overcome her weaknesses more easily.

"And next up is Link Rex!"

Ryul called Link's name, and a slight smile spread across his face as he walked up the stage.

"Your excellent performance has enchanted us all, so we have decided to reward you with the 'Leaf of Enlightenment'!"

After hearing those words, the entire audience was shocked beyond belief, and even Link was taken aback.

'Leaf of Enlightenment', as the name suggests, is an extremely rare item that can be used to attain instant enlightenment. You can use it to either improve your realm or your skills.

The only disadvantage that Link had against Rio was that his mastery over 'Dao Rhythm' is low, but if he used this item to enhance his mastery, he could certainly achieve feats similar to those of Rio in terms of mastery over his own legendary skill.

This reward is the most beneficial to Link, as he won't have to waste a lot of time training his skill now.

This 'Leaf of Enlightenment' is an extremely rare treasure that the world tree produces once every five hundred years; even the elven race itself has only this one leaf right now.

But the elf king still didn't hesitate to give this leaf as a reward to Link because he knew Link's insane talent and he wanted to make Link own a favor to the Elven race.

The future will likely be dominated by the human race, so it will be beneficial to use this leaf to earn the goodwill of those who will be at the top of the world soon.

This leaf will not only improve Link's combat capabilities; it will also enhance his 'Comprehension' talent immensely.

In other words, this reward was truly tailor-made for Link.

With the box containing the 'Leaf of Enlightenment' in his hand, Link went back to his seat with a satisfied smile on his face.

Author's Notes.

Yo! It's your beloved author here!
